Spam from theme update not allowing me to access my site
-
I did an across-the-board update this morning of themes and plug-ins on my site, gainesvilleiguana.org. After doing that, I keep being redirected to [redacted spammy link] (DO NOT CLICK) when I try to log in to the site.
How do I get rid of this spam/virus so I can access my site again?

Sorry to hear that, @jnew751 !
These forums are for the free sites using our managed hosting service, which can be quite different from running your own WordPress installation at another host.
Your host may be your best bet for sorting this out. They may be able to help you restore a backup so you can access things again, then you can harden the installation and get rid of any suspect themes / plugins.
